and customer systems to ensure process consistency and reduce the number of manual touch-points. The result is a proactive food safety
solution that delivers tighter safety control and
greater efficiency.

Pasteurization System
As an alterna-
tive to noxious
gasses, radiation
or carbon-produc-
ing thermal tech-
niques, Radio
Frequency Com-
pany’s New
Macrowave™
Ultra-Series Pas-
teurization Systems apply a high-frequency electric field to food products
that is proven to effectively control pathogens. Utilizing clean electrical en-
ergy from the grid, the material to be treated is conveyed through a high-fre-
quency electrode array where the alternating electrical energy causes the
material to heat rapidly and uniformly throughout the product thickness.
Due to this rapid, volumetric heating, the material is not exposed to ele-
vated temperatures for long durations such that nutritional values and func-
tionality are preserved.

New Multipacker
StandardKnapp has announced the release of the Tritium™ Multipacker
with the innovative Robo Wand™ programmable path-wrapping section,
which meets packagers needs for versatility, ease of changeover and finished
product quality. As companies adapt to packaging sustainability issues, they
seek ways to reduce material used in packaging and reduce waste when the
pallet gets to the retail floor and onto the shelf. At the same time, the proliferation of contract packers has resulted in a need for versatile equipment that
can be quickly changed over for a variety of products and pack patterns.
Holding down labor costs associated with changing over product lines and
maintaining equipment is tops on the list of must-haves for packagers today.
